Ground Covers of Special Merit 
MAYFLOWER or TRAILING ARBUTUS, Epigaea repens 
Described under Specialties. 
BEARBERRY or WILD CRANBERRY, Arctostaphyllos uva-ursi 
The finest evergreen ground cover for all locations. A native of the 
Eastern Coastal Region, it thrives exceptionally well in poor sandy locations 
and literally takes possession of sand banks and similar places, either in 
sun or shade. 
Pot-grown plants, 50c each, $5.00 per doz., $35.00 per 100. 
JAPANESE SPURGE, Pachysandra terminalis 
A fine evergreen ground cover for shady as well as sunny places. Does 
particularly well under large trees, where grass will not grow. Not only 
does it add to the appearance of such places, but it seems to have a bene- 
ficial effect on the trees themselves, acting as a living mulch. 
Pot-grown plants, 20c each, $2.00 per doz., $15.00 per 100. 
Special prices on large quantities. 
BOWLE’S GROUND MYRTLE, Vinca minor Bowle’s variety 
An improved variety of the well-known Periwinkle or Myrtle. The foliage 
retains its glossy green color in the sun and the plant makes a denser mass. 
The rich blue flowers are larger and more profusely produced than in the 
older variety. Blooms in Spring and intermittently through the Summer 
and Autumn. 
Pot-grown plants, 30c each, $3.00 per doz., $20.00 per 100. 
BALTIC IVY, Hedera helix baltica 
Hardier than the English Ivy, it can be planted with good success in almost 
any location. The foliage is smaller, with white veins, turning purple in 
winter. 
Pot-grown plants, 50c each, $5.00 per doz., $30.00 per 100.
